What Does Awareness Mean to You?

Sangha Members Share

At one of our group meditation sessions, sangha members shared their reflections on the experience of bare awareness. Here’s a list of their contributions.

Awareness is…

seeing through the eyes of a newborn.
not getting caught up in content, but staying in spacious context.
not getting caught up in details, but expanding to see the big picture.
not identifying with what is seen.
seeing through the eyes of infinity.
seeing beyond grief to the inherent gifts in loss and the beauty in this moment.
driving down a country road.
that which cannot be described.
that which connects us all.
the space between molecules.
the sky beyond the clouds.
the ocean beneath the waves.
the sound of silence.
the air which we breathe.
the fire which sustains us.
the river which flows through us.
the ground on which we stand.
